I am who I am when I need to be.

poem by: Andy Wilden
Written on Feb 16, 2015

 I am the earth, grounded in my earthy path, wind ever changing, flowing through my branches. 
 The water that flows, flexible and changing, and the fire that gives life and passion to and colour to my being.
 I am night, dancing under the moon in hushed whispers, I am day, resonating and bright full of the horned god fertility and might.
 I am light, I am dark I am sombre, I'm the spark. I am the dove I'm the raven, over a cauldron I'll be slaving.
 I am what I need to be, when I need to be, I am nature's protector and nature's lament.
 I'm her raging storm and her patient calm, I'm his indomitable power and his peace and tranquillity, that hums over nature.
 I'm a druid, I'm a witch, I am what I need to be when I need to be.
